INTRODUCTION DESIRE to know something about ones ancestors seems natural to ~Iankind, and while one is neither A the better nor the worse on account of his Pedigree, yet it seems a desirable thing to preserve family histories in a Genealogy. This is the more necessary for sometimes the disposition of titles and estates depend on the record. The Bible gives us many genealogies, and ,ve know that among the Hebrews, Chinese, Arabians and Oriental nations generally, much attention was, and is, paid to genealogies. In England, Parish Regist·ers of births1 deaths and marriages have been kept for centuries. The early New England Iaws required them to be entered in the Town Clerk's Office, and valuable help has been had, in this book, from that source. In New York, until 1887, no such records were requir,ed, but many families are colleeting and printing their records, which can be found in the various libraries. The Author's Apology~ Though not a Read by name, yet the fact that his mother was one, will be apology enough (if apology be needed), for the effort the author has made to col­ lect, arrange and preserve these items of the family history of the Reads, to ·whom he belongs through his mother, ,Yho was )Iaria, daughter of '\Villiam Reacl. Female and Collateral Lines. It has been the author's pur­ pose to give a record of all the families descended from our Read ancestor, both on the male and female lines. And, also, notes on other families with whom they have intermarried, be- 1ieving that these notes would add to the value of the book. 6 INTRODUCTION. Meaning of the Name~ The name Read has been the sub­ ject of many speculations as to its origin and meaning. One writer says that AschanazJ great-grandson of Noah, was the founder of the family. Another traces it to Rhea, an ancient goddess of the old Greek and Roman mythology, who was the wife of Saturn and mother of Juno, Neptune, and the mighty Jupiter himself. Others think it may denote an occupat-ion, from the Saxon Raed - speech, discourse. Or that it may have been used to denote a resemblance to a certain well known plant. Ried in German denotes a hollow stalk. Some think it has been compounded, ,as in Ethelred, or Reed the Good; Conrad, or Reed the Powerful ; Eldred, or Reed the Elder. The spelling ( and misspelling) appear to have been dictated largely by fancy. We not,e no less than 18, viz: Read, Reed, Reade, Reid, Ried, Ride, Red, Rad, Raad, Rheade, Rheadus, Reda, Rada, Redha, Wrede, Whrede, Wada, Wrada. Reeds of the Old World. The name Read is found in sev­ eral European countries. We note that in the 15th century in Scotland there was a :famous Robert Reed, or '' Robin of Redds­ dale'' (Reeds-dale) , whose figure was carved on a high rock as an armor-clad Giant, for his deeds of valor. In the same vale there d,Yelt a powt>rful clan, a branch of which was called Reed­ augh (Reed-oh). Sir Watter Scott, in his "Fair lVIaid of Perth" refers to them. A Peter Reed was 1..'"Ilighted by Charles V, at the seige of Barbary. His portrait hangs in the council house of St. Giles Church, Edinboro, ·which he endowed with a. fund to haYe the bells rung every day, at 4 in the morning and 8 in the e-i;-ening. Dod 's and Burke's works on English and Scotch Xoble Famili<:.s. give several Reades. with their pedigrees and coats of arms. At the present time (1912) we hear of one Sir Grorge Compton Reade, ·who is a plain American farmer at Howell. )Iichigan, ,Yho claims, ,vith much reason. to be the INTRODUCTION. 7 rightful heir of Shipton Court, a grand old €state m Oxford­ shire, England. lhe Reads in America are quite a numerous and patriotic tribe. They. were among the early settlers of New England, Pennsylvania and Virginia. As early as 1630, William Reade, born 1605, whom we believe to have been our ancestor, was one of Gov. Bradford's partn,ers in settling the colony of Boston, l\fass. His large family came over in 1635, in the ship '' Assur­ ance,'' ·which sailed from Gravesend, July 26th, 1635. He set­ tled at Weymouth, 20 miles south of Boston, on the coast. His brother, John Reade, came in 1643, and settled in Rehoboth, :Mass. In 1630 there also came, to Sal€m, :Mass., a" Col. Read," son of Sir Thomas Cornwall, and grandson of the Lord of Shrope­ shire. This Col. Reed, and his posterity, were leading m,en in Salem. About the same time another Read family was found in Plymouth. In 1660, John Reed came to Providence, R. I.. In 16:37~ George Read came to Vii:ginia. His great-great-grandson was George "\~ashington, "Father of his country." The Reads can claim Washington for their family record. Joseph Read, probably a relative, was Washington's military secretary, and would, probably, have been President had he lived. He was a man of unusual ability.* George Read of Del­ aware, was one of the :five men who had the double honor of being a sign-er of the Declaration of Independence and a framer of the Federal Constitution. He lived in fine style at NevYcastle, Del. The Reads of Pennsylvania have furnished some notable *This Joseph Read, born in the North of Ireland, 1741, came with his parents to America. where he received a fine college and profes­ sional education, and general culture. He was an ardent patriot, and in a variety of very responsible military, civil and diplomatic positions, showed such talents and rendered such invaluable service, that he was counted, in his day, one of the great men of this nation. His moral and religious life was blameless. He died in 1785, while yet in his prime. See Sparks Am. Biog. 8 INTRODUCTION. men in literature and statesmanship. William Read of Woburn, l\Iass., arrived Oct. 6th, 1635. His descendant, James Reed, \Vho lived at Fitz"-Villiam, or Keene, X. H., commanded the 2d Regi­ ment at Bunker Hill, ,,rhich did heavy fighting, losing 166 killed and wounded. James Reed was later made a Brigadier General by the Provincial Congress. Besides James Reed, there were at Bunker Hill, Jeremiah Reed, and Benjamin Reed, Jr., of Rut­ land, who was killed Jun€ 17th, 1775. and also William Warrin, killed at the same battle. It is a ~ell authenticated tradition that our Nathaniel Read had one or more uncles at Bunker Hill, and four cousins, two of whom were killed. The military records of New England and of the Continental Army furnish hundreds of names of Reads who served as regular soldiers, sailo1·s, and militia men, many of them several times. They also were active in the old Indian and Colonial Wars. Their descendants are eligible to most of these patriotic societies, if only they can trace their pedigrees back. Reads in America in 1790. The First Federal Census, 1790, shows that ( excepting New Jersey, Delaware, Georgia, and part of Virginia, and the, then, Territories) there were in the whole land 1,201 families named Reed, Read, Reade, Reads, Rede, Reede, Reid, Reide, Rhead, Ried. They comprised 6,877 per­ sons, an average of 5.7+ to the family. One family in every 342 was a Read, and it was, and still is, one of the more num­ erous families in our land. They were located by states as follows: l\'1aine 51, New Hampshire 57, Vermont 46, Massa­ chusetts 304, Rhode Island 19, Connecticut 86, New York 88, Pennsylvania. 258. 1Iaryland 71, Virginia (part) 65, ~orth Carolina 105, South Carolina 56. There was one Reed in every 217 persons in :Massachusetts, one every 440 in Connecticut and one in 421 in New Hampshire and one in 292 in Pennsyl­ vama.

    PHILADELPHIA AND THE SOUTHERN ELITE: CLASS, KINSHIP, AND CULTURE IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICA BY DANIEL KILBRIDE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1997 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In seeing this dissertation to completion I have accumulated a host of debts and obligation it is now my privilege to acknowledge. In Philadelphia I must thank the staff of the American Philosophical Society library for patiently walking out box after box of Society archives and miscellaneous manuscripts. In particular I must thank Beth Carroll- Horrocks and Rita Dockery in the manuscript room. Roy Goodman in the Library’s reference room provided invaluable assistance in tracking down secondary material and biographical information. Roy is also a matchless authority on college football nicknames. From the Society’s historian, Whitfield Bell, Jr., I received encouragement, suggestions, and great leads. At the Library Company of Philadelphia, Jim Green and Phil Lapansky deserve special thanks for the suggestions and support. Most of the research for this study took place in southern archives where the region’s traditions of hospitality still live on. The staff of the Mississippi Department of Archives and History provided cheerful assistance in my first stages of manuscript research. The staffs of the Filson Club Historical Library in Louisville and the Special Collections room at the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond were also accommodating. Special thanks go out to the men and women at the three repositories at which the bulk of my research was conducted: the Special Collections Library at Duke University, the Southern Historical Collection of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and the Virginia Historical Society.

C. W. H. PILE, PRINTER, No. 422 Walnut Street, Philadelphia. Stack Annex 5 PREFACE. IT has been no part of my intention in compiling these lists entitled "The Bench and Bar of Philadelphia," to give a history of the organization of the Courts, but merely names of Judges, with dates of their commissions; Lawyers and dates of their ad- mission, and lists of other persons connected with the administra- tion of the Laws in this City and County, and in the Province and Commonwealth. Some necessary information and notes have been added to a few of the lists. And in addition it may not be out of place here to state that Courts of Justice, in what is now the Com- monwealth of Pennsylvania, were first established by the Swedes, in 1642, at New Gottenburg, nowTinicum, by Governor John Printz, who was instructed to decide all controversies according to the laws, customs and usages of Sweden. What Courts he established and what the modes of procedure therein, can only be conjectur- ed by what subsequently occurred, and by the record of Upland Court.

The sun, directly overhead, blazed down, and in the distant west, dark storm clouds skated ominously across the sky. The coming downpour would quickly wash away all tracks; pursuit would be impossible. The baleful eyes of the lead rider narrowed as he scanned the peaceful scene spread before him. The remote town lolled in the afternoon warmth. On a battered barrel sheltered by an overhanging awning, a seasoned cowhand dozed fitfully.
